If you’re looking to get away with the family for a few days but don’t want to wander far from home or end up in big hotel where you’re little more than a room number, then look no further than a close-by Bed and Breakfast.

Known for their personal service and gracious hospitality, B&Bs are first-name-only kinds of places—comfortable, affordable, and homey--with a made-to-order breakfast served up every morning and a bit of history in the mix, as well.

The kids will beg to stay longer, and you’ll wish you could, too. After all, Montgomery County offers up some of the best guest houses around. Here’s a sampling:

Globe Inn: This 3-story brick Victorian Inn was built in 1895 and is located at 326 Fourth Street in East Greenville. For information and reservations: 215-679-5948.

John Kindig House Bed & Breakfast: This 1864 Colonial farmhouse is located at 244 West Orvilla Road in Hatfield. For information and reservations: 215-361-3200.

Joseph Ambler Inn: This 1734 Colonial Inn is one of several buildings sitting on this 12-acre estate. For information and reservations: 215-362-7500.

Shearer Elegance B&B: This Queen Anne Victorian mansion was built in 1897. For information and reservations: 610-495-7429 or 800-861-0308.

Spring House B&B: This 1700’s fieldstone farmhouse is located at 1108 Old Bethlehem Pike in Lower Gwynedd. For information and reservations: 215-654-1726.

William Penn Inn: This Colonial Inn was built in 1714 and is located at Route 202 & Sumneytown Pike in Gwynedd. For information and reservations: 215-699-9272.

Wyndham at Bryn Mawr College: This 1796 stone farmhouse is located at 101 North Merion Avenue in Bryn Mawr. For information and reservations: 610-526-5236.

Wynn’s Creekside Inn: This 3-story fieldstone inn was built in 1846 and is located at 1840 Perkiomenville Road in Perkiomenville. For information and reservations: 215-234-2292.

So make an August plan to pack up the family and take a few days off to rest, relax, and enjoy the simple pleasures before schools reopen and it’s back to business as usual again. The welcome mat is out for you, and it’s all just around the corner.
